Harlow Playhouse: The Ballad of the Underwater Daughter

Entertainment / Sun 12th Oct 2025 at 07:12am

SOMEWHERE out there, in the murky no-man’s-land between reality and “are you pulling my leg?” there’s a mechanical island inhabited entirely by dads.

Bodged together out of mangled metal and broken dreams, Dad Island is a flawed coping mechanism that barely manages to hold itself together. Then one stormy night, a tiny barnacle encrusted bottle floats into the harbour with a crumpled note inside which reads, “remember me?”

The Ballad of the Underwater Daughter is a strange sort of odyssey. A woozy universe of messy minds and monstrously fishy metaphors. Overloaded with puppets, props and machines, it is unquestionably the latest production from Leeds’ own theOBJECTproject (the company that may or may not have traumatised you with PIXIEMATOSIS. )The show is suitable for adults and people aged 14+. It contains very strong language and exploding dads.

1hr 15 mins performance plus an additional 30 mins post show exhibition.

Written, designed and constructed byMr Marc Parrett. Additional material created by Tash Hudson and Frances Merriman

Every Friday and Saturday: Happy Hour 6pm till 7pm. Bar open till 11pm.
